Palliative care can be provided at any stage of serious illness—and alongside curative treatment. It focuses on relief from pain, symptoms, and stress.

🕊️ Hospice vs. 🌿 Palliative Care

What’s the Difference?

🌿 PALLIATIVE CARE
• Any stage of serious illness
• Can be given with treatment
• Focuses on symptom relief & stress
• Supports patients and families
• Provided in IL, AL, SNF or home

🕊️ HOSPICE CARE
• Life expectancy of 6 months or less
• When treatment is no longer helping
• Focuses fully on comfort & dignity
• Supports patients and families
• Often provided at home or facility
💙 Both focus on comfort, quality of life, and compassionate care.

"Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, you may now dismiss your servant in peace.

For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all nations: a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel" (Like 2:29).
